The Suffolk village of Snape is perhaps best known as home to Snape Maltings, but the village itself is charming and dates back over 2000 years. At the head of a tidal estuary the Romans set up here with producing salt from the water of the estuary as their main trade. The village also has great Anglo-Saxon relevance – two burial boats and many graves have been discovered here. In more recent times, the Maltings that dominate the village were built in the 1800s by entrepreneur Newson Garrett and were used to malt Barley that was send on barges to London and exported to mainland Europe. The Maltings traded for over 120 years and in 1965 when the buildings had fallen into disuse, they were adopted by Benjamin Britten, whose vision lead to the creation of Snape Maltngs Concert Hall. Today, visitors to Snape can enjoy a wonderful village atmosphere, shopping and eating at the Maltings and for those who enjoy walking, The Sailors Path is a wonderful 6-mile route between Snape Maltings and Aldeburgh. Suffolk Secrets funded restoration work to this route in 2014 which passes through salt marshes and along the banks of the River Alde.
